So it's finally time for the pre-Christmas finals of these poll series, which had been going for some weeks now! We have one album for each featured year in the period 2000-2024, or in other words, the twenty-five records that got the most votes! It is a pretty interesting bunch that we've got here so I would be more than curious to see how this one turns out!

As for the voting, you know the drill - cast a vote for your favorite and let us know who and why you voted for! Star

Some stats on the final poll as we have a few bands represented several times:
1. Porcupine Tree - 5 featured albums
2. Haken - 4 featured albums
3. Riverside - 4 featured albums
3. Opeth - 3 featured albums
4. Ayreon - 2 featured albums

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

It's obvious PT will get the most votes, therfore, I'll vote Riverside - ADHD.

^PT will likely get the most with their 5 albums in the poll combined, but they may not win.

I voted for In Absentia.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Given that the PT vote will be spread so thinly, I wonder if you'd had had 4 quarter finals with 6 albums in each, then a final.... would the result have been any different? Ermm

Porcupine Tree - In Absentia - simply wonderful and there is not one tiny bit of it I don't like.

We have 12 votes so far and not a single clear favorite, which is quite interesting! In this regard, I am thinking of voting 'In Cauda Venenum', really appreciate the sounds on that album!

Could have been an opportunity but definitely more difficult to organize so instead I opted for a big grand final with all the winning entries. Smile
I am in any case planning to do a similar poll series dedicated to symphonic prog, which is where a different strategy might be experimented with! So look out for that one as well in the coming week or so! Wink

This is tougher than the individual polls per year. I guess I'll go with Ayreon's The Human Equation. None of my coats came with a nutrition label.
